Grade A Afghan Lapis Lazuli Bracelet – 3 to 4mm Round Beads

This elastic lapis lazuli bracelet from Afghanistan is composed of small round beads measuring approximately 3 to 4 mm. Its A-grade quality highlights its deep blue shades, giving it an elegant, luminous, and refined appearance.

Originating from Afghanistan, this bracelet is made of fine, round A-grade lapis lazuli beads. This high-quality selection is prized for the intensity of its blue tones and the overall harmony of the stones.

Lapis lazuli is an ornamental rock primarily characterized by the presence of lazurite. It may also feature white patches of calcite or small golden inclusions of pyrite, the quantity and distribution of which vary naturally.

The beads, measuring approximately 3 to 4 mm, give the bracelet a delicate, colorful look that is easy to wear every day. Thanks to its elastic design, it slips on easily and can be worn alone or paired with other natural stone bracelets.

With a length of approximately 17 to 18 cm, it fits wrists measuring approximately 16 to 18 cm.

The colors, patterns, inclusions, distribution of calcite or pyrite, and dimensions may vary slightly from one bracelet to another. These unique characteristics make each piece of jewelry one-of-a-kind.

Purification, recharging, and care

As lapis lazuli may contain calcite and pyrite, prioritize purification without immersion, such as using smoke, sound vibrations, or placing it on a flower of life.

To recharge it, place the bracelet in soft moonlight or near a clear quartz cluster for a few hours. Avoid salt, prolonged exposure to water, acidic products, and intense sunlight.

To preserve the small beads and the elastic thread, avoid chemicals, perfume, swimming, friction, and impacts. Remove the bracelet before showering or engaging in sports activities.
